Trust

Yesterday while with a good friend I was saying how the main reason I know I have grown as a Christian is not my knowledge of the Bible or how many worship songs I know without the need for lyrics. No, the most dominant feature of my faith that I know has grown is that of trust.

When I first accepted Jesus and started building a relationship with him my trust was in my parents, my friends and my family. If I had something that required an active decision I would go to those people. However now I look at my life and see that when something is troubling me or a decision has to be made I go to Jesus.

In going to Jesus I am trusting that whatever the decision he has for my life, whatever directions he wants to take me in it is the correct path. This is not to say I find it easy, in fact the exact opposite is true and I often don't trust, but more and more I am learning to Trust Jesus.
